3/20/16 MCBC Pastor Cato preaching. From a distance to close up 1.When I follow God from a distance I will compromise. Distance following, hanging between upstairs and downstairs causes some separation between God and myself. Distance followers are never close enough to see from Jesus's eyes. To be in the same place with Him. 2. Positions outside/inside position can cause me to be committed to the local church and miss the universal church (the body of Christ) The will of God for my life is what I want to embrace. I am to become on earth what God has already pre-determined what His Willis for my life Grace releases God's love for me. Grace is the favor of God. on sequences God is never blind t my pains, tear, and suffering.
